The importance of accurate time-integration in the numerical modelling of P-wave propagation [PDF]
The numerical dissipation characteristics of the Newmark and generalised-α time-integration schemes are investigated for P-wave propagation in a fully saturated level-ground sand deposit, where higher frequencies than those for S-waves are of concern ...

Rock Mass Anomaly Detection with a Variational Autoencoder in Tunnel Boring Machine Data
Abstract This study presents an unsupervised machine learning approach to rock mass anomaly detection in tunnel boring machine operational data using a Variational Autoencoder combined with bidirectional Long Short‐Term Memory cells. The model was trained on TBM data from the Brenner Base Tunnel project, with minor faults and geotechnically relevant ...

ABSTRACT The role of public project construction in achieving net‐zero carbon emissions highlights the imperative for contractors to prioritize low‐carbon practices. This study investigates the emergence of contractors' low‐carbon attention (LCA) based on the attention‐based view (ABV), focusing on structural factors (i.e., institutional logic and low ...

Ground‐borne vibrations are a frequent source of environmental problems. A full‐scale experiment is conducted to validate a 3D numerical model in order to analyze the efficiency of three methods of isolation. Trench barriers and wave‐impeding blocks are impractical and expensive methods of isolation, but mass scatters appear to be an efficient ...

Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...
